I'm sure it would work wireless if I set it up as per Devialets instructions, but my point with the post I just did, was that since it's possible to stream 4k video material over my WiFi, it shouldn't be a problem to stream just high res audio, so my conclusion is that either the AIR solution is flawed or the WiFi antenna/card is not good enough.
I will move to a newly built apartment soon and I'll make sure they install ethernet connections in every room and simply use cable instead. But it's still a shame it doesn't work better than this, with a high-end product.
